Iron Horse

I wish that all the reviews below weren’t full of complainers that have unrealistic expectations.
Fast service. Reasonable price. Didn’t eat here so cannot comment on the food. The beer did its job.

I would zero stars if I could. And we didnt even eat here… the hostess was so rude that we left. For starters when we walked in she was bitching to a coworker about another employee that was rude and unprofessional. After a few minutes she finally acknowledged we were standing there, seemed annoyed and brought us to a dirty table. She said she would go get a rag to clean the table, few mins pass and a waiter offered to wipe down the table, ironically it only took him a second to grab a rag. By the time the hostess returned we were already sitting at the table and when we said someone else wiped it down, she threw her hands in the air and muttered something to herself. After that, I had no interest in spending my money here and we left and went to fire down the street (which was awesome)!
To the manager or owner: you need to fire your hostess and hire someone who understands customer service. Ive been a hostess so I know what I’m talking about.

Every nice place on the map will need its dive bar, well… here it is! Rude staff and bartenders that have no problem giving everyone attitude. It is beyond me why ownership hasn’t recycled some of the stale grumpy bartenders.

Halibut tacos were the most amazing — delicious stuff was a nice surprise! The server was very excited to see us but she did a really good job after we were here for this area… Prices or medium patio was great.

This is my first review so what does that tell you?
Slowest waitress in the west… fish and chips where horrible. Neither my kids or myself liked them. Over priced for the quality you would want and expect. Only good thing, my wife liked her sandwich.

Great stop to grab a drink. If your into late night live music this is my favorite place to go watch, usually some good cover bands that kill it and some original material. On the other hand, the restaurant has good food but terrible service! Don’t expect hospitality at all. The bus girls don’t even say hello or tell you that your waiter/​waitress will be right with you. You’re just kinda left sitting there wondering what’s going on? This has been my experience every time I sit outside but none the less if their service is better inside it should be the same outside!

I should have checked the reviews before eating here. The service was very slow just as other reviews stated. The food was also not very good. The pulled pork itself was alright however both pork dishes we had were very dry and needed some moisture in the dishes.

It took an hour and a half to get our breakfast. The owner apparently is cheap and refuses to buy another grill for the cooks. Many tables gave up and walked out angrily. Only plus was our waitress. She was nice.

We stopped in on a hot summer day so I could get some shade and some good in my tummy. I was feeling shaky, and just needed something to work off my headache. We were told the kitchen was a bit backed up– a 25 minute wait post order taking. Having been a waitress for 7 years, I figured that’s only a couple minutes longer than usual.
We ordered quickly. Our waitress was rude. She came to our table and asked if we were ready and said, «I just want to get on with this.» that should have been our sign to leave.
20 minutes later, she put food in front of us that we didn’t order. I said it wasn’t ours. She argued for a second. Passed it off to the table next to us, and then went to check on our food. She brought out my husband’s chicken Caesar salad. She said the cook hadn’t yet started my meal.
Ten minutes later, my meal appears. It was mediocre at best. I’m hoping I don’t get sick from it…, but it kind of wouldn’t surprise me if I did.
Run from this place.

Been enjoying Friday HH at Iron Horse for a year now. Service is spotty but usually not too bad. Prime rib dinner is best for taste and value. Haven’t had anything else that I would recommend. Free tacos for HH on Friday are okay, assuming there are any left. Went on Friday at 5:30 and only enough taco meat for 6 tacos. Asked server when more tacos would be up and was informed kitchen was busy with dinner. Bar and restaurant sparsely occupied for Friday but service was crappy! Finally got taco bar replenished just before 7pm. Paid check and didn’t look at it closely. Did not get HH pricing on drinks! Definitely watch out for that.

I have to say I was pretty disappointed with this place. I went in for dinner and the menu was pretty limited. Our server was well-​meaning but not very competent. After sitting for a few minutes, she came by to awkwardly say hi, then let us know she would be back in a few minutes after she delivered another meal. After 2 of the 3 of us ordered our meals, she remembered to let us know about their specials. I ordered the taco platter with pork tacos. It was supposed to come with beans and rice, but I wasn’t informed until my food arrived that they were out of beans. The tacos consisted of large hard taco shells with some lettuce and tomato and a very small amount of meat, with a side of salsa from a jar. From what I could taste of it, the pork was pretty good, but otherwise I felt like I could have gotten the same meal for less than half the price at Taco Bell. One of my friends ordered their prime rib special, which included a pretty good amount of food for a decent price and he enjoyed it. There restaurant itself wasn’t full and therefore pretty quiet, but the bar in the back was getting pretty rowdy by the time we left.

Two old farts tried to tell me it’s a «private lot» like I’m a fucking tourist and then told me I was «going the wrong way» to patronize their establishment. Excuse me? I’ll run three laps around the block and then moonwalk into your bar if I feel like it.

I stopped in for an early diner the other night. The prime rib was tasty yet small. The mashed potatoes on the other hand were oit of this world. The calm chowder also was fantastic! The service was very good as well. I sat on the the patio/​sidewalk as many of the area buinesses have them. It was a great place to people watch. The prices were fair. I’ll be back

Food not bad. Too many drunk, smoking rednecks about the place though. Have the hamburger

I am dry heaving on my way home just thinking about the food we ate here. Absolutely disgusting with horrendous service. The wings we got were partially raw and bloody. The salad had brown lettuce. The bacon on the burger was raw. F this place

Service was great from when I walked in the door.
It was pretty empty for a 1pm New Years Eve.
I ordered the fish tacos, my sister order the nachos and my bro in law ordered the French dip. All of us loved our food! All 3 plates were very large too, we definitely didn’t go home hungry!
Bathrooms were also really clean & unique!

I would stay away at all cost. This is a bar that attempts to serve food. The prime rib could not be chewed nor cut with a steak knife. The rest room smelled of urine and stale beer. I cannot imagine what the kitchen looked like.

This is an absolutely terrible restaurant! I am obliged to join with my siblings once or twice each year to spend some of my pop’s money on a family meal. But DAMN, how I dread coming back to this place! I have tried to point out other very good alternatives… no joy. (I think pop likes the foxy chicks, and memories of his wilder days there) The place is filthy! The service is as bad as it can be. Long waits for drinks, the wrong drinks, overworked and tired shorthanded staff, etc. I ordered some sauteed shrimp. It was not sauteed but steamed. It was cold, and had no taste whatsoever! I never did get my soup… asked twice. The veggies were so bad, it seemed like someone was playing a joke! My sis had to re-​order to get her meal after the rest of us were served. I admit… some of us were not unhappy. Perhaps I am being too food-​centric (eccentric?). Doesn’t everyone prefer good food over the company of their relatives?
Next time, I am going to smoke a joint on the drive to CDA, drink beer, order some toast, zone out, and simply be thankful for the reunion. And ogle the pretty girls.

Service was a little slow, food was okay. I got the pulled BBQ pork. By the time it got to the table, the bun was soggy and almost fell apart when I picked it up. I ended up taking the bun off and eating it with a fork. Not the best and a little pricey, but a relaxed atmosphere and right in the middle of the waterfront area makes it a convenient stop.

Pretty much the worst service ever! If you want a drink you will need to go to the bar. The cocktail servers are not intelligent enough to check in with you EVER!
